Gary had to stop himself from hyperventilating due to excitement. His inner fanboy needed to be contained, yet he couldn't waste any more Energy than he already had. Still, there was one silver lining to meeting Jayden.
If Gary was to suddenly turn, he was convinced that the Altered superstar could suppress him in a fight. Unfortunately, he didn't know what would happen after that point, so the high schooler made up his mind to never find out.
The receptionist was baffled at the disheveled sight of Gary, but didn't say anything as the teenager followed the VVIP to the elevator. Jayden hadn't lied about his room being more than one person realistically needed, however he had failed to mention one very important detail.
He was staying in the PENTHOUSE AT THE TOP FLOOR!
The room alone was around five times the size of the apartment where Gary lived with his mother and sister. Through the glass windows one would be able to see the entire town of Slough. This is exactly the type of life Gary had dreamt about when wishing to become an Altered one day.
Alas, he couldn't really enjoy it right now.
Leaving behind a still baffled teenager, Jayden had gone to one of the connecting rooms and returned with a new shirt on. The Altered superstar then threw over a pair of briefs, socks, trousers, as well as a jacket.
“This should let you go around town tomorrow without alarming the police. If you go down the hall, the showers are to the right. There's a toothbrush and everything in each room.
'It's late and I have an early start tomorrow. Just keep the clothes, there's no need to return them. Leave whenever you wish, though don't be surprised if I'm already gone by the time you wake up.” Jayden told him. “Feel free to take a bite out of whatever's in the fridge.”
Turning around, the Altered superstar was ready to close the door to his room, but stopped a few seconds later and opened it again.
“Look, I know times are tough in the world at the moment, but if you don't do something about it, then you might be stuck in this situation forever. The biggest influence on your life is you. Don't wait for something to happen, change and make it happen.” Jayden made a fist and swung it out.
'I hope that bite isn't infectious.' Frank was worried.
